  Welcome back!

English Language Arts:

We will begun reading "A Wrinkle in Time" and have read through Chapter 2 this week. 

Please ensure that your student has access to a copy. The version we will be referencing for page numbers and using in class has ISBN number 9780312367541.

        **This is a "Classics to Keep" book. Each student should have their own copy to read from and annotate in.

In Poetry, we are discussing and memorizing "Jabberwocky" by Lewis Carroll. 

Math:

Hello Spartan Family!

We will begin using our multiplication and division skills to work with area and volume, and will gain a greater understanding of units of measurement.

Sincerely,

Mr. Dorazio

History:

We will wrap up our early exploration unit by looking closely at select explorers, including Columbus and Magellan, to identify and understand the importance of their landmark discoveries.

Science:

Next week, we'll wrap up our weather observations and move onto our next sphere: the geosphere. We'll end the week with an exciting, interactive erosion experiment.

Writing:

We will finish up our "Anne of Green Gables" essays and move on to a new story to continue building our writing skills.
